Ha., he ha, Walter., you are something my man., when do you want me to start filming. We could roll the cameras first at Mountain Province., shoot over to Snap Lake., roll on up to Diavik., and hey slip over to Southerna Back Lake., we could bring skelly and she could sit between us on the helicopter ride., sorry Skelly I couldnt resist that one. Yes., we could broadcast via satelite., to pay per view. You know Walt., that sounds crazy., but could be a brilliant idea. We could have 20 minute segmented clips from each drill hole., with a zoom in lenses focused on the core. We could throw in a couple of polar bear encounters to spice it up as well., then who knows., off to S. Africa., looking for the next multifaceted diamond show., and on to Australia., we could film the Aussies., and Crocidile Dundee wrestling those gators., and boxing those kangaroos. When we got tired., we could zoom out to the Opal fields., and sip some champaine from our subterranen lounge and in harvest a few of those White Aussie opals. I have one Walt., that is about 60 carats siting on my desk., a beautiful Austrailian white fire opal. I cut and polished it about 8 yrs ago. It is stored in Mineral oil., to keep the moisture from escaping the stone. Opals if not worn will crack very easily. Sincerely George J. Tromp |
